I'll start out by saying that I LOVE color. And I mean bright, fun, sexy color. And when I think of color, Nicki Minaj is one of the first people that comes to mind. From her Pink Friday Album to her Pink Friday coveted Mac Lipstick, she is the Queen Midas of products and advertising. Her OPI collection nail polish is currently in stores & so far I have tried OPI Fly, the lovely turquoise-ish shade. I love it but wish it was a tad more milky and a little brighter. But it is for sure a must have. I'm heading to Ulta today to pick up the other colors in the collection.

I've been hearing more and more about the Clarisonic lately so I decided to give it a whirl, literally! After researching the different options online, I decided to start out with the basics. The Clarisonic Mia retails for $119 on their website but you can find it cheaper on sites like Amazon or eBay.

I do love my Mia but I kind of wish I would have paid a bit more and gone with the more expensive option that has multi-speed functions for a deeper clean. Having said that, try out the Mia and make sure you buy from somewhere you could return it like Nordstrom or Sephora. I made that mistake! I bought mine at some small beauty supply (non-refundable) and immediately walked into Nordstrom seeing a huge display of them, UGH! Oh well...I mean I'm basically obsessed with it. After using for a couple weeks, my face is SO much softer and polished and my makeup glides on like butta, honey. Definitely a must-have!!

Awhile back I bought this Napoleon Perdis Mascara from Ulta. The first couple times using it I was freaked out by the angle of the wand. After getting the hang on how to hold it, I'm in love!! This, as of right now, is my favorite mascara... FYI Napoleon Perdis now has a line at Target. I have yet to try anything but will keep you posted!

This is my new favorite tanning lotion! The bottle says it's for your legs but I just use it all over. It has a lot of bronzers, which I looove, and smells SUPER good!!! It's like a sweet fig smell, mmmmmMMMmm. I feel like it doesn't give you that nasty after-tan smell either! Another HUGE reason why I'm obsessed is the price. It's about $35 which now-a-days is cheap for tanning lotion...lame huh. But if your into tanning or getting ready for summer, you should definitly try this one!!
